VA will consider the information you provide on this questionnaire as part of their evaluation in processing the Veteran's claim.” instead of the current “The Veteran has applied to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs for disability benefits. Please complete this Questionnaire, which VA needs for review of the application.”To allow the user to record the diagnostic test results regardless of how they answer the question "Is there evidence of cardiac hypertrophy or dilatation?” thus allowing the examiner to record data supporting the positive or negative decision.To correct a defect discovered by the CAPRI Development team - "Other study (specify):" does not appear on report when no detail data is entered.Problem: When the examiner chooses "Other Study (specify):" and does not enter any data, "Other study (specify):" does not display on the report.Solution: The template has been altered so that "Other study (specify):" appears on the report, whether any detail data is entered or not.DBQ LEUKEMIA was modified:1. To reword the introduction paragraph to read “Your patient is applying to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for disability benefits.
